The Volkswagen ID. Buzz and its Cargo twin may have captured all the headlines when it comes to electric vans from the German automaker, but they're not the only VW vans with a plug.

The ID Buzz arrives with EPA range numbers that are sure to harsh some mellows: 234 miles for the rear-wheel-drive variant, and 231 miles for the all-wheel-drive model.

Global sales of fully electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids rose 25.6% year-on-year to 1.9 million in December, albeit slowing for a second consecutive month, the Rho Motion data showed.
